Golden Circle and Snowmobiling Small Group Tour from Reykjavik

From US$292.29

Overview

Getting to Iceland's Highlands is impossible without the right vehicle. On this tour you'll see the highlights of the Golden Circle (Thingvellir, Gullfoss and Geysir) with ease, as well as venturing off road into the rugged interior for a 1-hour snowmobile ride over Langjokull Glacier. Hotel pickup and drop-off, and all necessary equipment for the snowmobile ride, are included.

Begin your adventure with pickup from your downtown Reykjavik hotel. Meet your guide and settle in to the vehicle for a short drive to the UNESCO World Heritage site of Thingvellir, the first site of Iceland's parliament, which is the oldest in the world.

Continue on to the geothermal area around the Geysir hot spring. Marvel as, every few minutes, hot water shoots 80 feet (25 meters) into the air. Next, it's on to the magnificent Gullfoss waterfall where water plunges in two stages into a 105-foot (32-meter) crevice.

Deep into the interior Highlands, arrive at Langjokull Glacier. After listening to a safety briefing and getting driving instruction, board your snowmobile (complete with all necessary equipment) and follow your guide for an exhilarating hour-long ride across the ice.

The snowmobile trip element of our trip was cancelled due to poor weather. Appreciate conditions on the glacier could’ve been much worse and fair play if cancelling on safety grounds. But being told your dream snowmobiles trip was cancelled whilst in glorious sunshine only a...More

fun and nice way to get to very difficult terrain

We had a enormous supervan that had about 9 people. We saw many things through the Golden Circle, waterfalls and all. These were great to behold.
The geysirs were a bit underwhelming. We saw a geyser in New Zealand, and that Geothermal area was much...More
